Hi Grounded - welcome to the site - its a good image with a good sense of atmosphere. Shame the head of the bird isn't in profile - but hey I'd like it in my portfolio (I've been wanting to take a decent heron images for years).
Strictly speaking this isn't in the right place on the site. For feedback on images you need to upload them to your portfolio and from their to the general gallery. For specific critique you can, if you prefer, upload them to the critique gallery. The forums can be a great place to ask questions and problem solve particular issues, but for critique/reveiw use the gallery is my advice.
In regards to the exif data. How are you saving the image, and what software are you using? Some image formats e.g. some versions of jpg do not retain exif data whislt others do.
Regards,
Adam
